I'm thinking Arreola ends up taking Stiverenes best shots early and then sets him down.

That's along the lines of what I'm hoping for but they're both durable and want that belt, badly.Quote:

Yes this is a hard one to pick.
Ill say Stiverne again since he won the first time n I like elephant seal but I've seen him lose a lot.
It is a tough fight to predict, both fighters are durable and powerful.
Chris is longer and more aggressive and has faster handspeed and maybe a little more pop. He also has better finishing skills but is somewhat lacking in mobility.
Stiverne is a more technical fighter and good counterpuncher who also hits very hard which can intercept the at times wild Arreola who is not devoid of real skill either however.
I think as said earlier that Chris was winning early on in their first fight before he got popped and the fact he still finished the fight proves he is full of heart, stamina and durability and that Stiverne does not have great finishing skills or natural killer instinct.
Based on that I think Chris will prevail this time round as I think he will be more wary this time. He is also a warrior in the truest sense of the word and is more prepared than ever, he just seems to be getting better and better.
Arreola KO6
However, there is great chances that Stiverne will land good solid counters again that can damage a vital part of Chris that is hard to miss (namely his nose). And that would lead to a similar outcome as the first fight.
So I back Arreola but in terms of a cash bet, yeah I think it'd be only light on!!
